What it is	Economics is the study of how people, businesses, and governments make decisions about money, resources, and trade. At Windsor, you can pursue either a BA or BSc stream, with the BSc involving more advanced mathematics and quantitative analysis. Both options explore finance and management science, and the program includes co-op work terms that let you apply what you learn in real workplaces.	You study the core functions of business — accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and economics — and learn how to manage them together in real organizations. This four-year program includes a mandatory co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work in actual companies. It suits people who want practical business skills and real-world experience before graduating.	You study accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and general business management. Unlike a standard Commerce degree, this program requires you to complete mandatory work placements throughout your studies, alternating between classroom and paid work terms at companies. It suits students who want to build professional experience and industry connections while earning, and who prefer learning through real-world application alongside theory.
